 Accessing your database search history in CINNL and PubMed. One way to document your search is by accessing your search history in the databases you've used. Unless your professor tells you to use a specific method, such as Prisma, or you're performing systematic reviews or meta-analysis, this is probably the best method. In this video, I'll show you where to find your search history in CINNL and PubMed. Other databases will likely have the search history in similar places. So once you know where to look in these two databases, you'll have a better idea of where to look in others. Let's start with CINNL. When you're finished searching, click Search History below the search box. As you can see, the search history for the searches you just performed will be displayed. Now click Print Search History to view a simplified version. Copy the simplified history and paste it into a document. To access your search history in PubMed, when you're finished searching, click Advanced under the search box. Scroll down to see your search history under History and Search Details. To see a search in PubMed format, click on the chevron, the little arrow here, in the Details column. To download your search history as an Excel document, click Download. Copy and paste the information from the Excel file into your assignment or other document, or save the file in a folder with other search histories. If you're required to document your search for an assignment and your professor has provided no further instructions on formatting, you can copy and paste your search histories into your assignment. If you're just keeping track on your own, you can save the search history in a document or a folder. Just make sure that if you're searching in multiple databases, you label where each search history comes from. You'll want to know what search terms and filters you used in which databases. You now know where to look for the search history in CINNL and PubMed. If you use any other databases, explore them to find the search history in those interfaces. Thanks for watching!
